The Battle Drum Reviews

Praise for THE FINAL STRIFE

'Epic in scope, its worldbuilding as intricate as filigree. THE FINAL STRIFE sings of rebellion, love, and the courage it takes to stand up to tyranny, following three women whose journeys will keep you gripped to the last'
Samantha Shannon, SUNDAY TIMES bestselling author of THE PRIORY OF THE ORANGE TREE

By toggling between key points of view, El-Arifi grants readers a dramatic birds-eye view of both an unraveling world and the indomitable spirits of the women embroiled in its maelstrom. This is a knockout.

Full of rich, vivid world-building with political intrigue and characters you cant help but root for. I loved it
Christina Sweeney-Baird, author of THE END OF MEN

Epic fantasy turned on its head in the most compelling way imaginable. A heroine with bite, a supporting cast of flawed but deeply human characters, and world building that is raw, unforgiving and richly textured, THE FINAL STRIFE is the real deal. El-Arifi is a bold new voice in epic fantasy and I cannot wait to read more of her work

A rip-roaring read!
